So to depower op mc they resort to trauma as the stopping point. Except we had no build up to that just pulled out of the ass on this level of abuse
Also makes the ex-fiancee even worse as she knew all this and still treated him like that.
Another also, did no stat or skill he got help mental fortitude?
Yeah, that's my problem with it. It feels a bit like it's pulled out of left field. I wish it was something introduced more thoroughly from the first chapter that this was the severity of the abuse he was facing.
Maybe this is a bit fucked up of me, but I'd love to see a story like this where the MC uses a Healing skill to reduce their mental health symptoms. Like, of course, anxiety and trauma responses aren't just something you can heal away, but it'd be nice if "Heal" could work similar to anti-depressants or something, so they use it to help them keep calm and build their mental fortitude on their own.
Then, when faced with a situation like this, they are able to handle it better because they've be doing the equivalent of getting medication and therapy lol
